Hey all...I'm trying to find a phone that will support multiple MWI so that I can have a shared central phone with say 4 users who can see visually that hey have messages waiting. Is there any phone that will do this possibly by re-assigning a soft-button? Can the Polycoms do this since those seem to be the phone of choice these days? Thanks!
I currently have 4 lines on my Cisco 7960G, between these 4 lines there are 3 mail boxes (one work, one personal, and two testing lines sharing a mailbox). It's not so much multiple MWI as multiple lines with their own MWI, but it does the job Cheers M> -----Original Message----- > From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com > [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of > Chris Hirsch > Sent: 08 August 2005 14:29 > To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion > Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Multiple MWI on a single phone? > > > Hey all...I'm trying to find a phone that will support > multiple MWI so > that I can have a shared central phone with say 4 users who can see > visually that hey have messages waiting.

Chris, I'm testing a Grandstream GXP-2000. It supports multiple MWI.

[Asterisk-Users] Multiple MWI on a single phone?
We use the GXP-2000 and it works quite well. When you program the buttons to the individual lines, the message waiting light will light when any of the lines have a message waiting. When you press a line button, if there is a message waiting on that line, you will get stutter dial tone as well as a text message indicating the number of new messages waiting... I've been really pleased with these units.>------- Original Message ------- >From : Chris Hirsch[mailto:chris@base2technology.com] >Sent : 8/8/2005 4:22:21 PM >To : asterisk-users@lists.digium.com >Cc : >Subject : RE : Re: [Asterisk-Users] Multiple MWI on a single phone? > >Bill Wesson wrote: > >> >>Chris, >> >>I'm testing a Grandstream GXP-2000.

Each button on a Polycom can monitor an individual mailbox. The light will light if any line has a message, an envelope icon will appear next to the button with the message. to retrieve use the message button and it will then let you select the line you wish to retrieve. Very easy.
